USAGE CONDITIONS
The main usage conditions that
negatively affect fuel consumption are
listed below.
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold
starts do not allow the engine to reach
optimum operating temperature.
Consequently, both consumption (from
+15 to +30% on the urban cycle) and
emissions will increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are
linked to situations with heavy traffic,
for instance when travelling in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or
in cities with many traffic lights.
Winding mountain roads and rough
road surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.
REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
IN BRIEF
Stop the engine before refuelling.
Only refuel with automotive diesel
conforming to the European
specification EN590.
OPERATION AT LOW
TEMPERATURES
If the outside temperature is very low,
diesel thickens due to the formation of
paraffin clots with consequent defective
operation of the fuel supply system.
In order to avoid these problems,
different types of diesel are distributed
according to the season: summer
type, winter type and arctic type
(cold/mountain areas). If refuelling
with diesel whose specifications are
not suitable for the usage temperature,
it is advisable to mix PETRONAS
DURANCE DIESEL ART additive in the
proportions shown on the container
with the fuel. Pour the additive into the
tank before the fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle for
a long time in the mountains or cold
areas, it is advisable to refuel using
locally available diesel fuel. In this case,
it is also advisable to keep the tank
over 50% full.

REFUELLING CAPACITY
To ensure that you fill the tank
completely, top up twice after the first
click of the fuel supply gun. Further
top-ups could cause faults in the fuel
feeding system.
FUEL TANK CAP
When refuelling, open flap (A) fig. 250
located on the left side of the vehicle
therefore unscrew the cap (B) fig. 250
turning it counter-clockwise.
For versions / markets where provided,
insert the ignition key in the lock of the
cap. Turn the key counter-clockwise
and remove the cap by gripping the
key. Do not remove the key from
the cap during refuelling. During the
operation of refuelling, the cap can be
hung to its appropriate place located
on the door A (A) (fig. 250).
